Is Tincup happening this weekend or no? If so, what day?
Well if you are up for it on Sunday it sounds like it will only be you and me(and anyone else you know that might join)

Still trying to see if I can swing it. Would have to be early like meetup at 7-8am in Tincup. I'll see if I can round up some more.

Well we dont have to meer in Tincup necessarily. I was thinking more like St Elmo or Buena Vista. Just depends on where you are at. St Elmo is about 2 hours from my place so I get having to get up early.

Ya, it would be 3hrs for me. Could do it either direction. I did it W to E last time. Wouldn't mind going the other way. Let me see what I can do. I'm shooting for an 8am start if I can go.

Also, for anyone else considering joining. This was done in a stock FX4 without a spotter with ease and it's a beautiful drive!

As a thought since I'm planning it as a loop type deal we could start with Hancock pass then Cumberland Pass and finish with Tincup Pass. Just a thought. Cumberland is easy. So easy a 2wd car can do it. Hancock Pass is closer to the level of Tincup Pass. All together makes a nice day trip

That sounds like a fun loop. Gonna post again in the Rockies forum to see what interest we get.

Seems I just missed this, I'd be happy to do a run with you guys some time. I plan to head out somewhere this sunday, last sunday the wife and I did Bill Moore lake trail. Trying to do one day each weekend out and back.

I can't promise anything this weekend. It might be a few weeks until I can go out and do more. The joy of having to save up for moving and stuff for a new job
